Mona Mehdy
Associate Professor in Molecular Cell & Developmental Biology



In response to pathogens and herbivores, plants employ up-regulation and down-regulation of diverse genes to achieve resistance. Research in my lab centers on two areas: 1) molecular mechanisms of ... Mona Mehdy

Richard Meyer
Professor in Molecular Genetics & Microbiology


Website

Conjugation is probably the most common mechanism for genetic exchange in bacteria. Bacteria can transfer DNA by conjugation not only between different species, but also into higher organisms such as ... Richard Meyer

Lauren Ancel Meyers
Professor


Website

The Meyers lab works on problems at the interface of evolution and epidemiology. We are simultaneously pursuing projects in two areas. They are applying network theory, agent-based simulation, ... Lauren Ancel Meyers

S. John Mihic
M. June and J. Virgil Waggoner Fellow In Molecular Biology
Associate Professor


Website

Research in my laboratory is focused on characterizing the molecular mechanisms of action of alcohol, inhaled solvents and anaesthetics on ligand-gated ion channels. We combine receptor subunit ... S. John Mihic

Kyle Miller
Assistant Professor of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology
